The Porsche GT3 took its name from the FIA Group GT3 in which it raced. North America missed out on the first-generation Mark I GT3 road car but did get the second-generation Mark II, which was introduced to a hungry market of Porsche purists in 2004 who were willing to make sacrifices in creature comforts for a rear-engine rear-wheel drive road-going race car experience that could only come from Porsche. The GT3 is the descendant of the Porsche RS, or race sport, and as such featured precisely what was required and nothing more. The 3.6L naturally aspirated flat six-cylinder engine produced 380 horsepower at a heady 7,400 RPM. The full 284 lb-ft of torque arrived at 5,000 RPM.
The GT3 is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission to tip the engine toward the 8,200 RPM redline in every gear. The majority of torque was available lower in the RPM range, which when combined with a limited-slip differential launches the GT3 from 0-60 mph in just four seconds. All of this in a 996-based car that scales in at just 3,043 pounds. Lightness is achieved in part by eliminating sound deadening, the rear seat, and other non-essential items such as a sunroof. The ABS brakes on the GT3 feature six-piston front calipers and four-piston rears and can slow the car from 60 miles per hour in less than 100 feet.
The exterior finish of the car is almost subtle enough to mask the race-tuned aerodynamics, which include a low chin spoiler, under car panels, and rear wing all designed to create maximum downforce, minimize drag, and eliminate unwanted lift. This Porsche GT3 is not entirely about sacrifice, and features air conditioning, stitched leather door, dash, shift knob, and center console trim, a multi-function remote with trunk release, and a telescoping steering wheel in the no-nonsense Black interior.
